UCONN HUSKIES
Players: Sterling Gibbs, Daniel Hamilton, Rodney Purvis, Jalen Adams, Sam Cassel Jr., Omar Calhoun
This group is just all sorts of deep. Hamilton is a future NBA player at 6-7 with the ability to knock down jumpers and defend multiple spots. Purvis started to come on late last year after taking most of the year to get adjusted to coach Kevin Ollie's scheme. Calhoun and Cassel Jr. will provide depth for what will likely be a 3-4 guard lineup at most points of the season. However, it's the newcomers who set this team apart. Adams is a terrific freshman scoring guard that will be able to knock down shots off the dribble and finish at the rim. Gibbs is another scoring guard, but he's more of a lights out shooter from deep. There might not be quite enough playmaking here unless someone decides to take a step back scoring, but overall it's hard not to be excited about what this group can bring.
